Manchester United Should Never Get Used To Losing, Says Bruno Fernandes

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes said the club's fans should not lower their expectations despite the Red Devils struggles this season, particularly at Old Trafford. Fernandes rescued his side with a stoppage time winner to beat an under-strength Rangers 2-1 on Thursday and close in on direct passage to the Europa League last 16. United had lost four of their previous five home games, which prompted manager Ruben Amorim to declare his side "the worst" in the club's storied history.

Rohit Sharma Hits Trademark Pull Shot For Six. Ranji Trophy Crowd Can't Keep Calm - Watch

Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma pulled Umar Nazir Mir for a trademark six, effortlessly lofted Auqib Nabi and Yudhvir Singh for a couple of more hits over the ropes to give a glimpse of his absolute best. But eventually, a fifty on Ranji comeback was not meant to be for him as he fell for 28 on Friday. Playing his first game for Mumbai in domestic red-ball cricket in nearly a decade, Rohit's first day on the field was a disaster with the 37-year-old falling for a 19-ball 3 in the opening hour of the Ranji Trophy clash against Jammu and Kashmir. But on Friday, Rohit gave a far better account of himself to notch up a fluent 28, his best in first-class cricket since a 52 in the second innings of the Bengaluru Test against New Zealand last year.

Mohammed Shami's potential return to international cricket was further delayed after the player's name was missing from India's playing XI against England for the first T20I in Kolkata on Wednesday.

Shami, who has already proved his fitness in practice sessions and domestic cricket for Bengal, was not there in the India playing XI.

Novak Djokovic Out Of Australian Open 2025, Retires Mid-Match Due To Injury

Novak Djokovic crashed out of Australian Open 2025 after he retired mid-match due to injury during the men's singles semi-final encounter against Alexander Zverev on Friday. Zverev won the first set 7-6 but Djokovic went to the net and shook his opponents hand to inform him about his decision. Djokovic was carrying an injury from his quarter-final match against Carlos Alcaraz and he looked in a bit of bother as Zverev made him engage in long rallies in the first set. Zverev will now take on the winner of the match between Ben Shelton and Jannik Sinner in the final of the Australian Open on Sunday.

Chasing a mere 132, India made short work of the match and won the encounter with 43 balls to go. Archer said that the Indian batters were 'extremely lucky' as a number of balls were miscued high up in the air but they ended up dropping in no-man's land.
